面对《特洛伊》远远低于预期的票房数字,华纳的高层也在反思,这是他们今年失败的第二部大制作了,票房失利带来的不仅仅是投资方面的损失,还有股价的下跌以及可以想到的股东们的问责。Whywill be defeated? ThisisWarner Bros.Board of directorsmostwantsto ask the clearquestion.
为什么会失败?这是华纳兄弟董事会最想问明白的问题。
Since Ryanis in charge ofWalt Disney, about the quantityinevitablelarge scaleatrophy of shooting, the management of Warneralsoexpectedthissituation, thereforeexpanded the investment, wantedto grabmoremarket shares.
自从瑞恩入主华特迪士尼后,合拍片的数量不可避免的大幅度萎缩,华纳的管理层也预料到了这种情况,所以才加大了投入,想要占据更多的市场份额。„Ryanlooks likehas the charmgeneral!”
“瑞恩就像是有魔力一般!”In the board meeting of Warner Bros., an executive directorsaidmanywill of the peoplebottomwords, „biginvestmentbigmanufacture that hedecides, neverwithworryreturnandprofitissue.”
华纳兄弟的董事会议上,一位执行董事说出了很多人心底的话,“他决定的大投资大制作,从来就不用担心回报和盈利问题。”„Shouldn't weuseBrad? Pitt.”Alsosomedirectorscomplained, „, ifmakesRyanplayKorjus, nowtheseare not the issues.”
“我们根本不该用布拉德?皮特。”又有董事抱怨,“如果让瑞恩出演阿克琉斯,现在这些都不是问题。”„Is issuehewill play?”CeoGerald of Warner Bros.knocked the table, „excepthas signed the actorcontract " Star War » series, afternew century, does heplay the movie that othercompanieshave produced?”
“问题是他会出演吗?”华纳兄弟的ceo杰拉尔德敲了敲桌子,“除去早就签下演员合约的《星球大战》系列,进入新世纪后,他出演过其他公司制作的电影吗?”
The peoplefell intosilent, if notRyanandWarnerhas the long-termhappycooperation, " Harry Potter » series, theyare not necessarily ableto participate inpart of investments.
众人都陷入了沉默,如果不是瑞恩与华纳有着长期愉快的合作,就连《哈利波特》系列,他们都未必能参与一部分投资。„Againoneweek, SonyColombia«King Arthur»mustscreen.”„The situation that saying that somepeopleare worried about, «Troy»faceswill be more difficult.”
“再有一周,索尼哥伦比亚的《亚瑟王》就要上映了。”有人担心的说道,“《特洛伊》面临的处境会更加艰难。”„Not necessarily.”Geraldreminded, „" Troy » box officewas lower thanourexpectations, perhaps«King Arthur»will be worse.”
“未必。”杰拉尔德提醒道,“《特洛伊》票房低于我们的预期,恐怕《亚瑟王》会更差。”„Right.”Immediatelyhas the directorto echo, „earliest whatthisscriptthrowstowardisTouchstone Pictures, obtained the approvals of someDisneypeople, was actually overruledbyRyan.”
“对啊。”立即有董事附和,“这个剧本最早投往的是试金石影业,也得到了迪士尼一些人的认可,却被瑞恩否决了。”
Others relaxsuddenly, the tightexpressionrelaxedmany, someas ifperson of Warnermore haplesswords. Theycanrelax.
其他人忽然松了口气,紧绷的表情舒缓了好多,似乎有人比华纳更倒霉的话。他们就能放松一些。Sitsin the boardhead, Time WarnerPresidentTang who has not spoken? Loganopened the mouthsuddenly, heaskedGerald, „youandRyanwere always on good terms, heoverruledwhatprojectfor these years.”
坐在会议桌首,始终没有说话的时代华纳总裁唐?罗根忽然开口了,他问杰拉尔德,“你与瑞恩一向交好,他这几年都否决了什么项目。”
The meaning in wordsis very clear, after theseprojectWarner, do not take over.
话中的意思很明确,这些项目华纳以后就不要接手了。„The biggestprojectwas«King Arthur».”Geraldthought, thensaid,„, Ryandid relieveDisneyandJack? Chen'stwopiecesmade, cancelledwithhisfollowingallcooperation programs.”
“最大的项目就是《亚瑟王》了。”杰拉尔德想了下,然后说道,“还有,瑞恩解除了迪士尼与杰克?陈的两部片约,取消了与他的后续所有合作计划。”„Whatcancelsis«wyvernRegeneration»and«80DaysVisitsWorld».”Healsoadded.
“取消的是《飞龙再生》和《八十天环游世界》。”他又补充道。„Informs the Warneraffiliatedallcompanies.”Tang? Loganhas nothinghesitant. Saidtoownassistant,„do not participate in the investments of thesetwomoviesagain......”
“通知华纳旗下所有公司。”唐?罗根没有任何犹豫。对自己的助理说道,“不要再参与这两部电影的投资……”„Considers as finished......”heto beckon with the handsuddenly, „informsthem, laterdo not participateto investJack? Chen'sanymovie.”
“算了……”他忽然摆了摆手,“还是通知他们,以后不要参与投资杰克?陈的任何电影。”Thesewordsno oneopposed, after allin the Hollywoodeye, the value of opposite partysurpluswas extremely limited.
这些话没有人反对,毕竟在好莱坞眼中,对方的价值剩余的极其有限了。„Also.”Tang? Logancontinues saying that „" MysteriousWoman » previewwasn't aboutto complete? Iremember that somepeoplehave raisedGeyl? Are in additionNatalie? Portman'sfriend? At the appointed timeinvitedRyanto attend the previewmeetingin the name ofWarner Group, hopes that hisagreesgavesomecomments.”
“还有。”唐?罗根继续说道,“《神奇女侠》的样片不是快完成了吗?我记得有人提过盖尔?加多是娜塔莉?波特曼的朋友?到时以华纳集团的名义邀请瑞恩参加试片会,希望他肯提出一些意见。”
The peoplelook at each other in blank dismay, understandsseveralbigmanufacturesdoes not do well. Even the executive of Groupalsofelt the tremendouspressure, otherwisehowplease is the surprisedboss the dcsuperheroicmoviemake the suggestion?
众人面面相觑,也明白几部大制作的表现不佳。连集团公司的这位高层也感受到了巨大的压力,否则怎么会请惊奇的老板为dc的超级英雄电影提建议?
After mergingAOL, Warnerhas been having bad luck, hidesmakesRyanveryclearthis point of modelinhome.
并购美国在线后,华纳就一直在走背运,躲在家中做模特的瑞恩很清楚这一点。Naturally. Hedoes not needto considerthesenow, butobedientis a qualifiedmodel.
当然。他现在不需要考虑这些,而是乖乖的做一个合格的模特。Standsindesign office that inrebuildsspeciallyforCharlize, Ryanlikebecomesgeneralby the marblecarving, whateverSouth Africanbeautifulwill drillpersonally a vice-gentlemansunglassescard of designon the bridge of the nose.
站在为查理兹专门改建出的设计室里,瑞恩如同被大理石雕刻而成一般,任凭南非美钻将亲手设计的一副副男士墨镜卡在鼻梁上。Puts onlastforRyan. Charlizewithdrewtwofeet, both handshold the chestcarefullyis taking a look athim.
为瑞恩戴上最后一副。查理兹退后了两英尺,双手抱胸仔细的打量着他。„Was OK?”Ryanfelt that the eyebrowis somewhat itchy.
“可以了吗?”瑞恩感觉眉毛有些痒。„Idiscovered a veryserious concern.”
“我发现了一个很严重的问题。”Pinched the chin, Charlizeis gathering roundRyanto walk. After seeingshereturns to the opposite, Ryancuriousasking, „discoverswhat, dear?”
捏着下巴,查理兹围着瑞恩走了一圈。见她回到对面后,瑞恩不禁好奇的问道,“发现什么了,亲爱的?”„Youput on the randomsunglasses......”Charlizeto walk, took downthatsunglasses, pinchedunder the cheek of Ryangently, „isthatcharming.”
“你戴上任意一副墨镜……”查理兹走过来,取下了那幅墨镜,轻轻捏了下瑞恩的脸蛋,“都是那么迷人。”„, Needsmypraisethank you?”Ryanholds onher, kissesthattwopetalsoftredlips.
“哦,需要我谢谢你的赞美吗?”瑞恩拉住她,吻了吻那两瓣柔软的红唇。„You're welcome.”Charlizeturned backbywork table, after putting away the sunglasses, then said that „, ifyoureallywantto thank, thathelpedmyCTsunglassesdoto represent.”
“不用客气。”查理兹走回了工作台旁,放好墨镜后,回头说道,“如果你真想感谢的话,那就帮我的ct墨镜做代言好了。”„Canask how manyendorsementsdoes have?” Before arriving at the work table, RyansatonCharlize'sworkchair, „, ifwere too low, Iwill not comply.”
“可以问一下有多少代言费吗?”走到工作台前,瑞恩坐在了查理兹的工作椅上面,“如果太低的话,我是不会答应的。”„Right?”Charlizetransferredsuddenly, jumpedto siton the work tablegently, held the chestto visithim, „, if......”
“是吗?”查理兹忽然转了过来,轻轻一跳坐在了工作台上,抱胸看着他,“如果……”Shekickson the footwas hanging the slipper, a slenderstraightlegreachedRyan, „I...... make the rewardwithmyself, Ok?”
她踢掉了脚上挂着的拖鞋,一根修长笔直的腿伸向了瑞恩,“我……用自己做报酬,可以吗?”„Dear......”
“亲爱的……”Ryanput out a handto holdin vain the carefulankle, not heavyheavyrubbedto pinch above, „are you...... temptingme?”瑞恩伸手抓住了白白细细的脚腕,不重不轻的在上面揉捏着,“你……是在引诱我吗?”„Naturally...... is not.”Charlizesnatchedoneselfleg, at the maximum speedjumps down the work table, was far away fromRyan, „the words that even iftemptsare notnow, Imustgo out, Imustgo to a company.”
“当然……不是。”查理兹把自己的腿抢了回来,以最快的速度跳下工作台,远离了瑞恩,“就算是引诱的话也不是现在,我要出去了,我必须去一趟公司。”Shedoes not wear the shoes, barefootsto open the gate of work room, turns the headto wave, „thatis very potentialdesigner, Imustseeherpersonally.”
她也不穿鞋子,就这么赤着脚拉开了工作室的门,转头挥了挥手,“那是位很有潜力的设计师,我必须亲自去见见她。”
After Ryannod, the doorclosed, heardsoundgently.瑞恩点头后,房门重新关上,传来了轻轻的响声。Inthesetwomonths, inhugeresourceswith the aid of the Ryanhand, Charlize‚CT’fashion companyhas been formed, although is also only the embryonic form, butrentedonDisney'safterMondeomain roadworkfloor, the approximaterackwasbuilt.
就在这两个月里,借助瑞恩手中庞大的资源,查理兹的的‘ct’时尚公司已经成立了,尽管还只是雏形,但租赁了迪士尼在蒙迪欧大道上的一个办公楼层后,大致的架子算是搭了起来。Even, prints the candy of Charlizeimage, appearedstarting from the lastweekinDisneyChildShop in Greater Los Angeles Area.
甚至,印刷着查理兹形象的糖果,从上一周开始就出现在了大洛杉矶地区的迪士尼儿童门店里。

对于查理兹想要开创的事业,瑞恩肯定不会袖手旁观,他的经纪团队的部分人手,一直在协助南非美钻,比如收购这个口味不错却品牌不大的糖果厂……Howto drillSouth Africanbeautifulwith the reputation of Oscarmovie queentransfers the commercial interest, histeamhas the plan of complete set.
如何将南非美钻和奥斯卡影后的名头转为商业利益,他的团队有着全套的方案。Yesterday'stime, did RyanreceiveBrad? PittandJennifer? Anniston'stelephone, the Touchstone Picturesaspectstarted the negotiationson the newmoviewiththeirmanagers, " Troy » box officeperformanceis far less thanto anticipate,givesreason that the touchstoneenoughkept prices down.
昨天的时候,瑞恩接到了布拉德?皮特和詹妮弗?安妮斯顿的电话,试金石影业方面就新电影与他们的经纪人开始了谈判,《特洛伊》票房表现远不如预期,给了试金石足够压价的理由。Suchnegotiationsmust certainlycontinueto be very long, Ryandoes not worry.
这样的谈判肯定要持续很久,瑞恩也不着急。As forAngelina? Julie, favorscooperatesvery muchwithDisney, how manypeople will the achieved both fame and fortunematterhaveto reject?
至于安吉丽娜?朱莉,也很倾向于与迪士尼合作,名利双收的事有几个人会拒绝?Returned to the studios in twobuildings, Ryanto sitin front of the computerlooksmetDisneylast monthreport form, thenreceived the Scott Swiftcall.
回到二楼的书房,瑞恩坐在电脑前看了会迪士尼上个月的报表,然后接到了斯科特?斯威夫特的电话。„Can complete, Scott.”
“做得好,斯科特。”Hearsnews that the opposite party said that after Ryansmiles, said,„concretematteryouweighed.”
听到对方说出的消息,瑞恩笑了笑后,说道,“具体的事情你来衡量好了。”Matteris very simple, Scottin the name ofRyanfoundation, making one go toHarvard Universityto find? the MarkZuckerberg, after a month of negotiations, the opposite partyacceptedtheirinvestment, tookfinancingto expand the firststep that.
事情很简单,斯科特以瑞恩的一个基金会的名义,让人去哈佛大学找到了马克?扎克伯格,经过一个多月的谈判后,对方接受了他们的投资,迈出了融资扩大的第一步。Naturally, investingis not big, temporarilyattained20%stocks, after facewaveok, certainly must finance, opportunity that continuesto invest.
当然,投资不算大,暂时只是拿到了百分之二十的股份,face波ok以后肯定还要融资,还有继续投资的机会。Regardinginvesting the abovematter, after the temperance of manyyears of bigfund, Scottisreach a high degree of proficiency, even if no Ryanto proposesomeinvestments, isfew of multi-compensationgaining, for exampletwoyears ago 5% that buys‚netflies’stock, nowturnedhadonetimefully.
对于投资上面的事情,经过多年大笔资金的锤炼后,斯科特可谓是炉火纯青,哪怕是没有瑞恩提点的一些投资,也是赚的多赔的少,比如两年前买下的百分之五‘网飞’的股份,现在翻了足有一倍。NowRyanhasdozensfoundationsevery large or smallandopenly or covertlyfully, like a fish in water that Scottoperates.
如今瑞恩大大小小、或明或暗足有几十个基金会,斯科特操作的如鱼得水。Theseare the methods that is used to amass moneyormaintain the value, hisfoundationis centered on the peripheralindustry of film and televisionandwide scope, although the presentWalt Disneymarket valueis away fromNews Corporationalsoa littledisparity, as the stock pricerisesunceasingly, surpassesthemto become the globalmarket value'sfirstmedia groupalsopossiblyto have.
这些都是用来敛财或者保值的手段,他的根基还是以影视及大范围的周边产业为中心,虽然如今的华特迪士尼市值距离新闻集团还有点差距,但随着股价不断攀升,超过他们成为全球市值第一的传媒集团也不是没有可能。Ryanclearremembering, the previous generationfinalseveralyears, Walt Disneyhas also become the globalmedia companyranked the first, althoughpossiblycannot compareNews CorporationorTime Warnerinmedia, butDisneytransforms the hematopoietic the ability is very powerful.瑞恩还清楚的记得,前世最后几年,华特迪士尼已经成为了全球排名第一的传媒公司,虽然在媒体方面可能比不上新闻集团或者时代华纳,但迪士尼本身转化造血的能力却无比强悍。Naturally, ifRubert? Modoccanrealizewishfor a long time- mergesTime Warner- the colossus of thatthismedia circlesisDisneyis not definitely ableto compare.
当然,如果鲁伯特?默多克能实现长久以来的心愿-并购时代华纳-那这种传媒界的庞然大物肯定是迪士尼无法比拟的。
The issueis, even ifModocfinancessuccessfully, the federal governmentwill not allowthistransactionto appearabsolutely.
问题是,就算默多克融资成功,联邦政府也绝对不会允许这笔交易出现。

如果放在太平洋对岸,这种类型的电影在6月1号前上映无疑是最好的选择,在北美却不是如此。Although the children's dayis hanging an internationalgiven name, but the United Stateschildandthisholiday, mostAmericansdo not havethisconcept, in additionInternational Workers'Day, althoughMay First International Labor Daystartsin the US, however the Labor Day of USactuallyat„51”, the United StatesLabor Dayis not the firstMonday of September......
虽然儿童节挂着一个国际的名号,但全美的儿童并不过这个节假日,大部分美国人也没有这个概念,除此之外还有国际劳动节,虽然“五一”国际劳动节发端于美国,然而美国的劳动节却不在“五一”,全美的劳动节是9月份的第一个周一……

最早的皮克斯动画长片,都会尽量避开与其他公司的大制作相撞,这也与当时皮克斯本身的信心不足有关系,但经历了连续不断的成功之后,皮克斯动画长片的首选就是暑期档,他们不再惧怕竞争,哪怕前后有《特洛伊》和《亚瑟王》这样超级大制作的夹击。(未完待续。。)
